I just noticed that it looks like it has 4 wedges; is that just an error with the image?

That's the back of the Small Wedge components. You can see them because the DDT's are pointing down at quite a large angle.

That's a terrible design for Ironbot, it's going to be fragile as heck.

It's hard to believe me and S32 live in the same country.
 
That looks pretty sweet, inf. I imagine it should be pretty hard to beat once you've used up the spare weight. =]

Not bad. =) Have you considered adding a small skid on the back to keep the front end down when it accelerates?

I don't think it would be radioactive. It's a common rule that you don't eat anything that's glowing.
It is? Oh damn...
Well, when have you ever been served glowing food? Glowing stuff is bad. Plutonium, neon lights, glow sticks.

Despite it being a crap machine, people are still gonna vote for the girrafe because it is "Funny"
<sarcasm detected>
 
I think they're probably gonna vote for it just because it isn't an HS. But if I were doing that, I'd vote for the flipper.

You know you are getting yourself into this now AFTER we already moved to another topic to talk about to give Joe and Kill a bit of  a rest.


I now had Pizza. :3

I raise you fajitas with sour cream. =D

The thing is, I wouldn't mind an artbot winning if it was any good, such as the Christmas Reindeers, or Click's Ice Phoenix a couple of months ago. If the giraffe had a half-decent skin, then at least it'd have somthing in its favour. I can't be the only person that didn't find it funny.

If the giraffe does end up on the front page, I would like an official inquiry. It's not even that well-built for an artbot. And the skin's pretty poor.

In other news, I just got rep privileges. o:

I got them ages ago, I just didn't think it was worth mentioning. =]

I think that's a good move, personally. It would stop cheap wins like that from happening where the bot that leaves the platform first isn't the robot that's eliminated first. How high would said walls be?

I can only apologise, Joe. You've already expressed how difficult it is to be a moderator, even on a forum as small as this one. Let's just forget about it for now, I hope it's able to be cleared up quickly and without too much bother.

Guys, I think we should probably stop arguing about it.
 
we can safely assume that the mods are gonna take care of everything in due course.

Right, that's complicated things. I've still got no idea if this has been made up or not, but we can safely assume that the mods are gonna take care of everything in due course.

So really, this has come through two parties before actually reaching the open...A screenshot of it would be much more convincing, but even that could still be doctored. If SotG knows who it was, then she'll be PM'ing Joe about it as he asked her to do, and this will all be taken care of in due course.

A VS does need good drive either way, as the opponent will be rushing into your weaponry, and if you're sitting still, the opponent's force will all be transferred into your weapons, and your robot will start to rotate upwards as a result of Newton's Second Law. One of the rare instances where RA2 physics corresponds to IRL physics.

The triangle chassis actually works out as being heavier, because you need the smaller CB, which is 5kg, as opposed to the lighter Blue CB. If you take everything into account, I reckon Ounce's chassis is the smallest you can get away with, but I'd go for a normal 2x1 chassis at the lowest possible setting. 2.0 or 1.9kg with Plastic 1.
